Hi Joao, Paul,

My name is Arife Vural. I'm working as Network Engineer for RIPE NCC RIS (Routing Information Service) Project. We have remote route collectors around the world to collect BGP routing data.

Lately, the box we have at MAE-West is not as functional as we aimed. We could not get enough peers there. Because of that we are looking for a new place for RRC box on West coast. PAIX looks like a good choice for us by looking at number of members and also network infrastructure. We are just wondering whether you would help us to locate RIS box at PAIX. To do this, we would need help at the beginning to install the box and do the network connection. Other than that, we also need a transit provider to reach the box.

I'll be appreciated if you could get back to us whether you could help or not about relocating the RIS box at PAIX.

Kind regards. Arife
